Ideal Siding is a franchise that offers siding renovation services to homeowners in North America. It aims to provide reliable, affordable and professional siding services through its proprietary system.
Ideal Siding was founded by Alex Filipuk after witnessing his friend's struggles as a siding installer during the 2007 housing crisis. Seeing the disparity between homeowner costs and installer wages, Alex reimagined the siding process to offer fair compensation to installers while providing homeowners with more affordable pricing.
Driven by a commitment to fairness and quality, Ideal Siding quickly expanded from Vancouver to become what it says is the fastest-growing siding company in North America. Today, the 37-unit company is known for its transparent pricing, top-quality materials and a 25-year labor warranty. There are over 400 locations available for franchising in the U.S. and Canada.
